It might sound silly, but I ran into all kinds of issues trying to install on a fresh Mint XFCE, until I realized it was creating a 32-bit prefix, so I added "WINEPREFIX=~/LaunchBox WINEARCH=win64" into the downloaded script (at the top, so it would be created in 64-bit properly), before realizing the root problem: For some reason apt decided to install the Wine 32-bit instead of Wine 64-bit. This is the first time I've encountered this, and I've tested this with success many times on Mint and Ubuntu (in Virtualbox) and Manjaro (without success) without this architecture issue. I've since added the proper version of Wine. Now, I am a bit of a noob when it comes to Wine, but would it be beneficial to add that bit to the overall script from the get go, or if both architectures exist does it automatically pick 64-bit in that case (or is my issue just a one in a million fluke)?

Tried this on in VM Ubuntu and Mint and am pretty stoked, but in reality I'm a (novice) Manjaro user. That being said, it appears I will need to change only one thing in your script (the call to the package manager). I will try this later, primarily because I don't want to try this on my daily driver (just in case). Looking forward to this. Linux does have software with this kind of functionality (Gnome Games, GameHub, Nostlan, Pegasus) but nothing has quite the same... verve? Personally I'd rather have Launchbox as an AppImage or better a Flatpak/Snap (keeping it distro non-specific), but if you got it working in Wine I'll take it.

Thank you very much for the replies. I was not aware of the refund policy. I can see that the one year with the upgrade costs the same, so I really don't have anything to lose. Thanks again!

So, total noob question: Is there any chance of ever seeing some sort of Big Box trial? I am interested in this functionality, but I am not sure that I will enjoy it, or find it comfortable navigating all those games (and emulators) from my couch. I'm not trying to be a jerk or annoying, I'm just trying to have a closer look at the goods before I lay down my $70. Thank you.
